A novel parametric bound for information retrieval from black hole radiation

Hawking´s argument about non-unitary evolution of black holes is often questioned on the ground that it doesn´t acknowledge the quantum correlations in radiation process. However, recently it has been shown that adding `small´ correction to leading order Hawking analysis, accounting for the correlations, doesn´t help to restore unitarity. This paper generalizes the bound on entanglement entropy by relaxing the `smallness´ condition and configures the parameters for possible recovery of information from an evaporating black hole. The new bound effectively puts an upper limit on increase in entanglement entropy. It also facilitates to relate the change in entanglement entropy to the amount of correction to Hawking state.
